Replace just the TPS on Honda and Acura

If you’re having problems with your Honda Civic TPS, Honda makes you buy the entire throttle body. That can cost almost $300. That’s crazy, since the problem is just the sensor. Standard Motor Parts now offers a Honda TPS and Acura TPS for about $40.

Just drill out the rivets holding the factory TPS in place and install the new sensor and gasket. Then drive in the new self-drilling screws. Recalibrate the system and you’re good to go.

Get the BEST auto repair informationAlldatadiy.com and Eautorepair.net are the two best shop manuals—period! Unlike the cheaper Haynes and Chilton manuals that cover multiple year models, leaving the exact information you need to fix your car, these professional manuals cover your exact year, make, model. A subscription includes up-to-date the manufacturer’s technical service bulletins, step-by-step removal and installation instructions, illustrations, wiring diagrams, component locations, torque specifications, fluid types and capacities and maintenance schedules. Plus, they contain full trouble code descriptions and troubleshooting instructions.

Which one should YOU choose?
If you’re tracking down a wiring issue, Eautorepair.net is the better choice. Eautorepair.net redraws factory wiring diagrams in color and includes the component, splice and ground locations right in their diagrams. That saves a lot of time because you don’t have to refer back to the component locator or circuit locations. Alldatadiy.com, on the other hand, uses the factory diagrams. So you have to refer to the factory legends to learn the identification symbols and then refer back to circuit diagrams to find the splice and ground locations.
However, Alldatadiy.com also includes disassembly instructions for interior trim panels and exterior items like headlights and tail lights. If you need to dig into your doors, dash or console, Alldatadiy.com is the better choice because Eautorepair.net doesn’t any interior or exterior trim or body part removal.
